Abstract(in English) The most time consuming operation to verify a signature with the elliptic curve digital signature algorithm (ECDSA) is a multi-scalar multiplication with two scalars. The Interleave method with NAF (IL-NAF) and the Interleave method with MOF (IL-MOF) are efficient methods for the multi-scalar multiplications without any pre-computations. We have to the estimate the length of the consecutive zero digits (zero-run) for efficiency analysis of multi-scalar multiplications using the IL-NAF/MOF. In this paper, we consider the appearance probability of the zero-runs and their average zero-run length using the markov chain. We present asymptotic length of the consecutive zero digits (zero-run length) of IL-NAF/MOF for randomly chosen n bit two scalars. Indeed, the average zero-run length of the IL-NAF and IL-MOF is asymptotically 3 and 256/85, respectively. Moreover, we apply the appearance probability of zero-runs to the speed estimation of multi-scalar multiplications using the direct computation method. We prove that the IL-NAF/MOF using direct computation method can achieve 4.7~4.8% faster computation than the standard IL-NAF/MOF with iterated doubling.
